What replaced Gstreamer and Mplayer in CentOS 8. RPM finder finds both for CentOS 6 and 7 but not 8. There must be a replacement for them but I don't know what.
rpmfusion might be what you're looking for.
I'm assuming that rpmfusion is a repository that I have to set up on my new squeaky clean freshly installed machine and then proceed to pollute it with questionable packages. ;-)
I'll look into that tomorrow.
What I would really like to know is, were these applications replaced with something else that I should be using instead?
mplayer always has been in rpmfusion - it contains support for codecs that are classed as non-free such as MPEG.
I don't know about CentOS8 'cos I've never looked, but the default video player in Fedora is Totem (aka "Videos").
